Use The Weapons///

Me-Maw Thoughts

Number 288

July 26, 2016

The other night I was reading a book and occasionally watching the TV program Ronald had on. He was watching a rerun of the old original Startrek series.  In this episode there was a creature who could take the form of anyone.  This creature had invaded the ship in the form of one of the crew and had then changed to other crew members, the Doctor and a lovely lady. The creature in any of these forms had a goal to kill and take life.

When the creature was discovered and shot with the weird weapons they use on Startrek, the truth emerged and the lovely lady turned into a hideous looking creature lying dead on the floor.  The interesting concept was that the creature needed to pull the life from the people it attacked so that it could live.

What a picture of the devil: the enemy of all that is good.  The one who hates you is set on killing and destroying you.

Satan comes as various people and temptations and tricks us into believing He is a helper. He is only as strong as we allow him to be. He only has power when we allow him access to us and our families.

John 10:10 (KJV)
¹⁰ The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.

NEWS FLASH: Satan hates you and is set to destroy you and needs you to give him life, to believe his lies and to allow him into your daily decisions and actions.

2 Corinthians 11:14 (KJV)
¹⁴ And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.

Satan is looking for your weak spot and is trying to find a way to get you to follow a destructive path. This may be in the form of a person, a job, selling out for success, or just deciding to eat, drink and be merry.

2 Corinthians 4:4 (KJV)
⁴ In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.

The god (little g) of this world is Satan and will blind eyes to the truth of the gospel of Jesus Christ.  He wants to blind your eyes to the truth so that he can lead you to destruction.

BUT WAIT:  WE HAVE THE WEAPONS WE NEED!

2 Corinthians 10:4 (KJV)
⁴ (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;)

Ephesians 6:16-18 (KJV)
¹⁶ Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.
¹⁷ And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
¹⁸ Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit,

Give your heart to Jesus, walk in Faith and Prayer and use the Word of God…the written declarations to defeat the enemy and keep the blinders from your eyes.

Use the Word like a weapon, speak it out loud and it will send the enemy back to hell where he belongs.  Know that you have the victory and ask Father God, the Creator of the Universe to let your eyes be open to the deception of the enemy and you will be the winner every time.

The word is powerful.  Write a few scriptures that are promises to you on 3×5 cards and keep them with you. Speak them and the atmosphere around you will change.

By His stripes I am healed: My God will supply all of my needs: God will open doors no man can shut: I will be saved and all of my family:  The blood of Jesus Christ cleanses me from all unrighteousness: My help comes from the Lord above: I will sing a new song.

Those are just some starter scriptures that are death to the enemy of all humanity. We can bring down the enemy when we realize just how powerful we are when Jesus Christ is our Savior.

Use the weapons: see the real enemy!!

Father, I decree and declare today that every person who reads this will see with spiritual eyes. I decree and declare the blinders are coming down and we see the truth and the truth will set us free. I decree and declare the enemy is defeated in each of our lives and no weapon formed against us will prosper. Thank you that we are victorious…we win because you have already won.  I pray this in the mighty name of Jesus.  Amen

God Bless each of you.

Love, MeMaw
